Hi!
Openni_launch does not work anymore under Indigo for Kinect , but freenect_launch does. So install freenect_launch and libfreenect :
sudo apt-get install libfreenect-dev
sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-freenect-launch
Then call :
roslaunch freenect_launch freenect.launch
If it still does not work , disconnect Kinect from usb and plug again.
One more thing , it didn't work for me when Kinect was connected through an USB 2.0 hub but directly in USB 3.0 input of pc.

"This package contains launch files for using OpenNI-compliant devices in ROS. It supports the Asus Xtion, Xtion Pro, and multiple version of the Primesense 1.08 and 1.09 cameras. It does NOT support any versions of the Kinect. freenect_launch or openni_launch is the recommended package for using a Kinect with ROS."
